Overview
The ES600.2 Synchronization and Power Management Module is an Ethernet
switch with integrated voltage supply and time synchronization for connecting
several data acquisition or interface modules to a host PC. The ES600.2 mod

ES600.2 Synchronization and Power Management Module
The ES600.2 module is equipped with two upstream Ethernet connections (one
Gigabit Ethernet and one Fast Ethernet connection) for the data exchange with
the host PC or a drive recorder.
The six downstream Ethernet connections of the module can be connected
with network, measuring, calibration and rapid prototyping modules. ECUs that
are equipped with an XETK or feature a separate Ethernet interface, can be con
-
nected directly to these Ethernet connections.
The ES600.2 supplies connected measuring modules of the series ES4xx /
ES6xx with current and carries out the data exchange with the modules using a
common cable. The integrated power management function sequentially
switches in the connected modules This allows preventing high start-up peaks.
NOTE
The host PC can be connected either with the "GE-HOST" or "FE-HOST" con
-
nection.
The drive recorder ES720.1 can be connected with the "FE-HOST" connection.
